Have an issue with a block of code someone wrote for me as an example. Doesn't work.

Question

def fish(colour);
return colour + " fish"
print fish("red")

So a guy wrote this as an example of a function. I tried to copy it and i have checked it and its exactly as was originally written. Can anyone see what is wrong with it? Thanks

Answer 1

1)does it say syntax error
this code is in python 2 and you are using python 3
2)you have used a ; at the end of line 1. it should be :

python 3 code for the code you posted-->
def fish(colour):
return colour + " fish"
print(fish("red"))

Answer 2

:D thank you works now
